Normally it is seen that when a child trips and falls off or gets hurt from an object and starts crying, mother comes rushing towards him and not only picks him up in her lap but also starts hitting the floor upon which the child had fallen or the object due to which the child had got hurt. This she does inorder to pacify the child so that he stops crying. But in doing so she iinvariably creates an impression in the mind of the child that whatever or whosoever hurts you should be punished. She sows the seed of, "Revengefulness" in the mind of the child for his entire life.
Only if the mother can react by both picking up the child in her lap and simultaneously caress and cajole the floor upon which the child had fallen or the object with which the child had got hurt or wounded the child will develop to look around him with compassion and care.
Good prospective of seeing the same situation
